Don’t leave your pint on the barThe front of the bar has a very slight incline facing customers. It’s not usually enough for drinks to slide off, until the whole thing starts to move when bar staff are energetically pulling pints on the hand pumps.The first time my pint slid off the bar this evening they said I could have a replacement one for half price (is that because they know it happens now and again?). Nothing was mentioned about the cleaning bill for my friend’s smart jacket that was now covered in beer.The second time it happened this evening the barman said I was holding my pint and dropped it. Rubbish. I was standing well away from the bar and saw it just take off. He effectively called me a liar and there was no offer of a replacement. I felt really offended and was obviously out of pocket.It’s a real shame because although I don’t go there often it’s a great pub with good beer, good food and a good atmosphere. Except that the bar counter can wobble and now and again behave like the ejector seat in the James Bond car. And the bar staff duck out of taking any responsibility by saying it’s the customer’s fault.Will I go there again when there are plenty of other pubs for me to choose from, who knows? But I certainly won’t leave my pint standing on the bar
Aaah the Lovely Talbot. Sunday roast is the best I’ve had in London, absolutely delicious and hearty. Great atmosphere and very clean. Owner is lovely and staff very friendly. Well worth a visit. Can’t comment on food during the week as I’ve only been there on a Sunday. Best roast in London? Might just be.
Lovely sunday lunch for six. We went here for Sunday lunch yesterday – a party of six, aged from 9 – 84.. I was slightly worried about it as my dad is a very hard man to please and the other restaurants in my area haven’t impressed him much.. Anyway, this place did the job.. it was light and spacious, really friendly, great choice on the menu – and the food was very good. Two of us had the roast beef – and it was mainly burgers for the kids – all cooked to personal requirements. I’d personally recommend the smoked haddock! The starters were all practically licked off the plates (squid/ lemongrass dish/ pork rolls/ roast veg and goats cheese on brushetta..) We’ll definitely go back!
